“…The least responsive (lowest modulation efficiency) case was observed under uniform bias conditions; this case describes all 16 sections of the device being biased at the same current density, 500 A/cm 2 , while only one section was RF modulated. This modulation efficiency improvement result agrees with theoretical predictions, given the saturated gain at this bias condition [2,7]. For each case where the bias in the modulation section was reduced, the gain section's bias current was increased to maintain a constant output power.…”

“…On the other hand, if the entire device is modulated, the standard two-pole response is found and a less-than-optimal differential gain is realized limiting the modulation efficiency of the device. It also implies that the approximations used in deriving the analytic modulation response of a gain-levered laser do not hold for this long-cavity, multi-section quantum-dot device [2,13]. A corresponding response is given in Fig.…”

“…A research report has also revealed that via band structure engineering, the dynamic characteristics of QD lasers can be tailored [14]. Several structural and technical solutions such as using tunneling injection [15], pdoping [16], two sections gain lever [17], injection locking [18], or operating at excited state emission [19] have been suggested to overcome the mentioned restrictions on the modulation bandwidth of QD lasers. One of technical suggestions for improving the modulation response of QD laser is optical locking.…”
